The motorcyclist was treated in hospital for minor injuries sustained in the crash.

Mrs Shaw’s dog was unhurt in the incident.

2. A DISUSED pub could be turned into a community centre if planning permission gets the go-ahead.

An application was submitted to change the use of the Jolly Sailor on Broad Lane, Moldgreen, into a community hall.

Despite bleeding heavily, Mr Singh was able to make his way to a neighbour’s house across the road, but within minutes of the assault he collapsed on the driveway of his own home.

4. POLICE sealed off a stretch of George Street, Milnsbridge, after reports of a woman being bundled into a car.
